This is our plan for Christmas this year.We did this on Christmas Day and they gave us our passes at the end of our meal. We shopped some after lunch and walked around a little bit but were back at the viewing spot by 2:15 or so because the park was so busy that day. It's a great place to watch the parade from.
It is pretty great. The only thing I didn’t like: people snuck into the reserved area and didn’t get kicked out. I heard them joking about their “tickets”. I don’t usually get too worked up about these things, but I have to admit I did with this one.
I just did the package in April and there was a CM at the entrance to the roped off area collecting tickets. A few minutes before the parade starts they do take the ropes down, but the area still stayed very empty throughout the parade.ESPecially as much as you pay for the meal I’d be angry too. Isn’t there anyone there to enforce it?

It was a pretty crowded area for us. The CM took the tickets from people right by the ropes, but didn’t bother with anyone further back. Then some of these renegades’ children snuck right up to the rope.I just did the package in April and there was a CM at the entrance to the roped off area collecting tickets.

That would annoy me for sure! I don’t mind paying extra for perks but for the price I expect them to enforce no entry for those who didn’t pay.It was a pretty crowded area for us.
